— -- The Texas Rangers have landed the biggest free agent left on the market.

Outfielder Shin-Soo Choo has reached agreement on a seven-year contract with the team, baseball sources confirmed to ESPN.com, in a deal reported by CBSSports.com to be worth $130 million.

Choo was one of the top leadoff hitters in the majors for the Cincinnati Reds in 2013 with a .423 on-base percentage, a .285 batting average, 21 homers, 54 RBIs, 20 steals and 107 runs scored.

He avoided arbitration last season by agreeing to a one-year, $7,375,000 deal.
